Wedding



I shot a small wedding over in Pescadero this weekend.
They'd planned it about 2 months ago and assumed just as everyone else had, that the weather would be, well, sunny at least.
I even drove over there the day before to get some practice shots in so I'd know what the weather would be like...
on Friday it was beautiful! a little cold, but sunny, perfect marriage weather...
On Saturday it rained... not just cats and dogs, but alligators and squirrels and elephants.
We all sat in our cars and waited for the pastor to get there... not 5 minutes after the rain stopped. That didn't keep us (me especially) from getting wet (thankfully I'd worn my old, dirty shoes), but the ceremony was absolutely beautiful. Not only did the rain stop as soon as they started, but the sun started shining through the clouds. I'm a definite believer in signs, and if that wasn't a good sign for their marriage I really don't know what is.
Here's one of the first shots I took, It's not amazing technically, but I just love how the bride looks like she could be Mary Poppins on her wedding day....

It's been a while


The past couple of weeks I haven't done much personal shooting. Been trying to finish up with school and such.
Here's one more sea shot that I did for my portfolio.
